Description: "Nutritional watchdog" Dr. Yoni Freedhoff dispels the myths that interfere with healthy weight management and offers an empowering program that has helped his patients lose weight and keep it off for good.</B>Today's dieters experience a staggering 95 percent rate of failure. Why Diets Fail and How to Make Yours Work explains that this is not a failure of willpower, nor is it a sign that some people are doomed to be overweight forever. Dieters must change the way they relate to food and to dieting, argues Dr. Yoni, in order to keep off pounds forever. In this landmark book, the author reveals the same tools that have helped his patients achieve astounding, long-lasting results. Dr. Yoni's two-pronged approach to permanent weight management guides any dieter to lasting success. First, he dispells the seven myths of dieting that so often lead to failure in a few weeks, helping you to overcome the flaws in your perception of dieting. Secondly, he provides a sensible ten-day plan for resetting your entire relationship with food and dieting.  Dr. Yoni's plan prevents the yo-yoing, the relapses, and the other backslides that can undermine even the most committed dieter. As an additional benefit, the plan's flexibility allows it to stand alone as a weight management tool or be used in conjunction with other diets to achieve real and lasting success. If you've ever tried to lose weight and failed, you know that future attempts to diet can feel hopeless and fruitless. Why Diets Fail and How to Make Yours Work, drawn from years of research and practical application, offers dieters an encouraging, healthy, and practical solution to long-term weight management from one of the world's foremost weight loss and obesity authorities"--
